Icebreaker Youth Series 2014 Round 2

Track
, Newport –
Saturday, 15 Feb 2014

Event Summary

Event Overview

The Series, now in its 5th year, comprises 3 rounds of endurance based Omniums. Riders can enter single rounds but riders need to compete in all three rounds to be eligible for the overall Series title. Due to unprecedented demand in 2013 we will run heats if the numbers of riders exceed track limit of 24 per category.

Overall Leaders jerseys will be awarded at the end of each round. Medals will be awarded after each round with overall trophies awarded at the final round.

Each round will carry British Cycling points.

Icebreakers are an ideal opportunity for experienced riders to brush off the cobwebs and test yourself against the best youth riders. Equally it is an opportunity for those relatively new to track racing to see how they stack up in advance of the main summer season.

About the Event

Info for Riders

Girls and boys will race separately. Youth C riders will complete their omnium from 1400-1600 and the Youth A and B riders will compete from 1600 through to the evening with an expected finish of 2000. Events will be endurance based and aimed at competent track riders. If you have not raced indoors before then please do not enter this series. There will be 3 events per category; scratch, points and elimination. We may put in a 4th race if there are no heats required for the main races.
No disc or trispoke wheels will be allowed.
An entry will also include one parent pass to allow one supporter to accompany a rider in track centre. All other non riders will be strictly limited to the stands for the duration of the racing.
